    Deepin 15.7: My hardware keyboard (is printed so on the heads of the plastik keys) is «US INTL» (this is exactly the configuration you find using https://www.inputking.com/ , option European languages! No exotic thing, absolutely classic, for Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French,  German, Italian, Spanish and Swedish and having some diacritic chars for Chinese pinyin with 2 diacritic signs one over the other over the voyel! You see the configuration under the Editor field of Inputking! Inputking needs that keyboard to work with the option European languages!!!) but this option a/ is not reconizable in the Debian keyboard setting «dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration» also used by Deepin 15.7. That configuratiion is only available through «setxkbmap us intl» in Deepin terminal. «echo 'setxkbmap us intl' >> ~/.xsessionrc» does not work! Adding XKBMODEL="pc105"
    XKBLAYOUT="us"
    XKBVARIANT="intl"
    XKBOPTIONS=""
    in /etc/default/keyboard does not work!
    An other solution?

    Thank you very much dear jellyzhai for the help! I did try today to add a command for the startup (https://bbs.deepin.org/post/176684#page%3D1) with «setxkbmap us intl». Is now in that file (no .xinitrc was in ~ before that; now I have one with that commando). But this does not work...

    SOLUTION:

    that command

    echo 'setxkbmap us intl' >> ~/.xsessionrc

    really works in the little desktop environment JWM (see my discussion
    https://bbs.deepin.org/post/176764#page%3D1
      
    This seems to be a limitation or bug in the Deeping desktop 15.7.
